Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
In a house near the green, sprawling park, Lived a lab, black as night, named Annie Oakley by mark.
5
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
With a wag and a bark, full of joy, full of spark, She embarked on adventures from dawn until dark.
6
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
But a mystery profound, caught her curious eye, A round object with hands, that pointed low and high.
7
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
“Tell me, what is this thing, that moves without a sigh?” Asked Annie to her friend, a wise old butterfly.
8
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
“It’s a clock,” said the butterfly, fluttering by, “It tells us the time, how the hours fly by.
9
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
The short hand for hours, the long for minutes nigh, Together they dance, ‘neath the day and night sky.”
10
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
Annie pondered and thought, with a curious mind, “How wonderful,” she mused, “a way to bind
11
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
The moments we eat, sleep, play, and find Treasures in the yard, leaving no stone behind.”
12
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
So, she watched the clock, learning the dance of its hands, Imagining time as endless grains of sands.
13
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
She learned when it pointed to eight, it commands. A walk in the park, with all its glorious lands.
14
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
When the hands struck twelve, it was time to eat, Her bowl filled with kibble, such a delightful treat.
15
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
And at three, oh, the joy, a training feat, Learning new tricks, with rewards so sweet.
16
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
Annie Oakley, the lab, now wise to the clock, No longer puzzled by its rhythmic tick-tock.
17
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
She understood time, with no need to mock, Thanks to her friend, and their enlightening talk.
18
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
So, if you ever wonder, as you play and frolic, How to tell the time, with a method so symbolic,
19
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
Remember Annie Oakley, and her discovery comic, Of the clock with hands, in a tale quite atomic.
20
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
Let’s wag our tails, for time is but a gift, An endless treasure, causing spirits to lift.
21
Annie Oakley, The Little Black Labrador, Learns to LISTEN
For with each tick and tock, our hearts it will sift, Guiding us through life, with its steady shift.
